sphingosylphosphorylcholine

sphingosylphosphorylcholine is a lipid of Sphingolipids (SP) class. Sphingosylphosphorylcholine is associated with abnormalities such as Cerebral Vasospasm, Subarachnoid Hemorrhage, Atherosclerosis, Hypertensive disease and Niemann-Pick Diseases. The involved functions are known as MAP kinase kinase activity, JUN kinase activity, Phosphorylation, biphenyl synthase activity and Cell Death. Sphingosylphosphorylcholine often locates in Adipose tissue, Protoplasm, Body tissue, Membrane and Extracellular. The associated genes with sphingosylphosphorylcholine are UCN3 gene, MAPK9 gene, JUN gene, NAA50 gene and P4HTM gene. The related lipids are Lysophospholipids, lysophosphatidic acid, Lysophosphatidylcholines, Sphingolipids and Saponin. The related experimental models are Mouse Model.
